Amazon Kindle no threat to college textbooks

Interesting. I am a big Kindle fan but admit there are definitely some reading tasks (like flipping back to re-read a passage) that are better with a paper book.

Professors at seven universities around the nation, including Arizona State University, tested the wireless e-reader in a pilot project over the past year. All reported that although students liked not lugging books around, the Kindle posed significant challenges that sometimes frustrated students and interrupted studying.
